store integrated into website (iframes/scrollbox)

[troymation]

I have been trying to run zc inside my website, to maintain its feel. I have it up in an iframe, but after research on this forum, I see that iframe will not work properly. Is there another way to run zc inside a page (I have read of css scroll box as possibility, but also read that no "body" or "html" tags can be in the scroll box). I am woefully undertrained at this stuff, but can't afford to pay someone to do it.
my integrated store page (in the iframe) is here: https://plymouthskysports.com/purcha...ive_online.htm
and the page without the integration is here:
https://plymouthskysports.com/store

These URLS are not "public" yet (by that I mean I am not referencing them from the website). I am also not finished with the CSS yet.

I am trying to get a store up where people can prepurchase skydives and gift certificates. The store will be a small part of the website, so I do not want to redirect to another page.
Thank you,
Troy
I am running 1.3.9h, upgraded from 1.3.9e. I have no add-ons running (outside of what came from the zc download). I have tested transactions outside of the iframe.

You're right about the iframe. You do have quite a bit of non-store content, but it could be included in EZ pages if you wanted to make Zencart your whole site.

Failing that, you have made a good start styling Zencart to look like your main site. My suggestion would be to continue down that path, using the same colors, images, etc. in Zencart so that it appears to be just another page in your site, even though it's in its own subdirectory. I've done it many times.

There's also this:

http://www.zen-cart.com/index.php?ma...roducts_id=990

I haven't used it, don't know if it will work with the current Zencart version and understand it can be tricky to set up, though I've seen it used successfully in the past.

So nobody else wants their store to flow with their site? I know its only been a few days (since I posted the question), but I am surprised that more people don't integrate their zc store with their site.

No Surprise here......

Zen-Cart can be, and is designed to be, "the site"
Not just an "add on" to "the site".

For me. Zen-Cart is the site (its the bit that makes money)
The "other" bits, that you call "the site". I consider superfluous. It may look nice and be helpful and pretty, but if it doesn't help make money, its secondary.
